Gorilla ladders FAQ
What's the difference between a step ladder and a platform ladder?
A standard step ladder has rungs you stand on, while a Gorilla platform ladder features a wide, flat standing surface at the top. The platform model gives you more comfort and stability when you're working at height for extended periods, making it ideal for painting, electrical work, or any job where you need to stay put. Platform models also reduce foot fatigue compared to balancing on narrow rungs all day.
How do I choose the right ladder height?
Your ladder height depends on the ceiling height or reach you need. Here's a rough guide:
A 3 step model suits standard domestic ceilings around 2.4–2.7 metres
A 4 step model works for slightly higher ceilings or outdoor gutters
Extension ladders handle two-storey buildings or roof access
Always measure your working height and check the ladder's maximum reach before buying. The adjustable platform model is a good pick if you need flexibility across different heights.
Are Gorilla ladders safe for uneven ground?
Yes, models like the tripod are specifically designed for uneven or sloped surfaces. The tripod design provides a stable three-point base that adjusts to the ground, making it ideal for landscaping, fruit picking or outdoor maintenance work. For flat surfaces, standard step ladders and extension models with wide-set feet give you plenty of stability on concrete, timber decking or level ground.
What weight rating should I look for?
Most models are rated to 120kg or 150kg, which covers the user plus tools and materials. If you're carrying heavier gear or working with multiple people accessing the same ladder throughout the day, go for a higher-rated model. Always check the duty rating on the ladder before use and don't exceed the maximum load, because it's there for your safety.
Can I use a Gorilla ladder for electrical work?
It depends on the model. Fibreglass ladders are non-conductive and safe for electrical work, while aluminium models conduct electricity and shouldn't be used near live wires or switchboards. If you're a sparkie or doing any work around power, make sure you're using a fibreglass-rated ladder. Check out our fibreglass ladder range if that's what you need for the job.
